Lesions Treated

  • Seborrhoeic Keratosis

    These are common benign lesions which often increase with number are people age. They are often removed because they catch on clothes, bleed when caught on something or for cosmetic reasons. Usually they can be shaved off but some might require excision.

  • Sebaceous Cyst

    These are common benign lesions but they can cause problems with infection and smelly discharge as well as being unsightly. Treatment usually involves excision which carries a very low risk of recurrence.

  • Lentigo Maligna

    This is a precancerous lesion that can turn into melanoma. It is usually treated by excision to prevent progression into a cancer.

  • Basal Cell Carcinoma

    This is the most common type of skin cancer. Treatment is usually excision and in the vast majority of case that is the end of treatment. Patients usually do not require any follow up after treatment because the risk of recurrence or spread is so small.

  • Squamous Cell Carcinoma

    This is a type of skin cancer that is almost always successfully treated by one excision. There are small risks of recurrence and even smaller risks of spread so patients are follow up to check for signs of this following surgery.

  • Melanoma

    This is a potentially serious form of skin cancer. Usually if it is suspected excision of the lesion is performed as soon as possible. Following this melanomas almost always require a wider excision and may need further surgery.
